Youth Operations Unit

The Operations Unit investigates crimes of violence committed against juvenile victims. Juveniles who are arrested are brought to the Operations Unit and are fingerprinted and photographed in the juvenile processing center. Their arrest reports are reviewed by Unit detectives before transport of the offender to the county facility.

The Operations Unit can be contacted to gain information regarding a criminal offense in which the complainant is a juvenile. The Operations Unit can also be contacted regarding interference with child custody offenses.

When a juvenile is arrested, he/she will be transported to the Operations Unit juvenile processing center and then on to the Henry Wade Juvenile Center at 2600 Lone Star Drive
